Hey everybody, 2017 is almost done! Where does the time go? It’s been another fine year with some amazing shows in Ireland, Europe and the US, and I’d like to say a big thank you to everyone who came out to lend their ears to the music and cheer me on — there were some really incredible crowds.

I’ve spent the majority of my time this year locked up in the studio putting together a new album. It’s almost finished now and I’m really happy with it. 2018 isn’t even here yet but it looks like it could be pretty intense. New album and tour, 20th anniversary of the original release of White Ladder, and my 50th birthday all looming up on the horizon. Can’t wait! Watch this space for more info…
